PLANTINGS
SHINE ON
Impatiens is already the
most popular bedding
plant in North America.
The only thing stopping
gardeners from planting
even more is its inability to
tolerate full sun. No longer.
Viva Sunpatiens, a sun-
tolerant New-Guinea-
type impatiens, thrives in
full summer sunlight,
letting this favorite flower
flourish where it couldn’t
before. Sunpatiens is
available in a range of
flower and foliage colors
(shown here is Variegated
Salmon). Sold in Home
Depot stores nationwide,
homedepot.com
“For compact,
sturdy plants,
pinch back
shoot tips of
fall-blooming
perennials, such
as mums and
asters, one last
time before the
Fourth o f July.”
